Each of the backlight sources 1021 may be configured to emit light for providing backlight for the first display panel 103 and the second display panel 104. The first display panel 103 may be a black-and-white display panel of a first resolution, the second display panel 104 may be a color display panel of a second resolution, and the first resolution may be less than the second resolution. Exemplarily, the first resolution may be 720*720 and the second resolution may be 4320*4320.

Optionally, the display device may be a wearable display device. For example, the display device may be a virtual reality (VR) device.

FIG. 2 is a flowchart of a method for displaying an image according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The method may be applicable to the apparatus for displaying the image 101 of the display device 10. Referring to FIG. 2 , it can be seen that the method may include the following steps.

In step 201, a first target image with a third resolution and a second target image with a fourth resolution are acquired.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the display device 10 may perform display based on a received source image in a film source. The source image in the film source may be a color image with a second resolution. The display device may include a processing module for processing the source image. The processing module may receive the source image, and acquire the first target image with the third resolution and the second target image with the fourth resolution by processing the source image. The apparatus for displaying the image 101 in the display device may be connected to the processing module and may acquire the first target image with the third resolution and the second target image with the fourth resolution from the processing module. Both the first target image and the second target image may be color images. The first target image may include a plurality of first image regions in one-to-one correspondence with the plurality of backlight sections.

Referring to FIG. 3 , the first target image may be an image acquired by down-sampling the source image. Referring to FIG. 4 , the second target image may be an image acquired by cropping the central region of the source image. For example, it is assumed that the source image may be divided into 3 rows and 3 columns, 9 regions in total, the second target image may be an image of a region in the second row and second column among the 9 regions of the source image.

Optionally, both the third resolution and the fourth resolution may be less than the second resolution. Exemplarily, the third resolution may be 1080*1080 and the fourth resolution may be 1440*1440.

In step 202, for each of the backlight sections, a reference grayscale value of each of the backlight sections is determined based on grayscale values of respective pixels in the first image region corresponding to the backlight section.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the plurality of first image regions included in the first target image may be in one-to-one correspondence with the plurality of backlight sections. For each of the backlight sections, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 of the display device 10 may determine the reference grayscale value of the backlight section based on the grayscale values of the respective pixels in the first image region corresponding to the backlight section.

The reference grayscale value may be positively correlated with the grayscale values of the respective pixels in the first image region. That is, the larger the grayscale values of the respective pixels in the first image region are, the larger the reference grayscale value determined by the apparatus for displaying the image 101 is; and the smaller the grayscale values of the respective pixels in the first image region are, the smaller the reference grayscale value determined by the apparatus for displaying the image 101 is. Moreover, the smaller reference grayscale value of the backlight section indicates the lower brightness of the first target image in the first image region corresponding to the backlight section. The larger reference grayscale value of the backlight section indicates the higher brightness of the first target image in the first image region corresponding to the backlight section.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the number of the determined reference grayscale values may be the same as the number of the backlight sections included in the backlight module. Moreover, the plurality of first image regions are in one-to-one correspondence with the plurality of backlight sections. That is, the number of the determined reference grayscale values may also be the same as the number of the first image regions included in the first target image.

Exemplarily, it is assumed that the backlight module 102 has 30*30 backlight sections, the number of the first image regions included in the first target image may be 30*30 and the number of the reference grayscale values determined in step 202 may also be 30*30.

In step 203, grayscale values of respective pixels in a first display image are determined based on grayscale values of respective pixels in the first target image.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, as the third resolution of the first target image acquired in step 201 above is different from the first resolution, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may determine the grayscale values of the respective pixels in the first display image based on the grayscale values of the respective pixels in the first target image. Thus, it may be convenient for the first display panel 103 to display an image with the same resolution as the first resolution of the first display panel 103. For example, the first display panel 103 may display the first display image, and the resolution of the first display image is the first resolution.

Optionally, it is assumed that the image displayed by the first display panel 103 is the first display image, the first display image may be a grayscale image as the first display panel 103 is the black-and-white display panel. When acquiring the first display image based on the first target image, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 needs to perform grayscale processing on the first target image firstly and then sample the first target image subjected to the grayscale processing, thereby acquiring the first display image.

Exemplarily, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may acquire the first display image with the resolution of 720*720 by down-sampling the first target image with the resolution of 1080*1080 which has subjected to grayscale processing.

In step 204, grayscale values of respective pixels in a second display image are determined based on the grayscale values of the respective pixels in the first target image, grayscale values of respective pixels in the second target image, the reference grayscale values of the plurality of backlight sections, and the grayscale values of the respective pixels in the first display image.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may determine the grayscale values of the respective pixels in the second display image based on the grayscale values of the respective pixels in the first target image, the grayscale values of the respective pixels in the second target image, the reference grayscale values of the plurality of backlight sections, and the grayscale values of the respective pixels in the first display image.

In step 205, each of the backlight sources is driven to emit light based on the reference grayscale value of the backlight section where the backlight source is disposed.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may control the respective backlight sources 1021 in the backlight module 102 to emit light respectively and the brightness of the light emitted by the plurality of backlight sources 1021 may be the same or different. For each of the backlight sources 1021, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may drive the backlight source 1021 to emit light based on the reference grayscale value of the backlight section where the backlight source 1021 is disposed.

For each of the backlight sources 1021, the brightness of the light emitted by the backlight source 1021 may be positively correlated with the reference grayscale value of the backlight section where the backlight source 1021 is disposed. That is, for each of the backlight sources 1021, the larger the reference grayscale value of the backlight section where the backlight source 1021 is disposed is, the higher the brightness of the light emitted by the backlight source 1021 under the driving of the apparatus for displaying the image 101 is; and for each of the backlight sources 1021, the smaller the reference grayscale value of the backlight section where the backlight source 1021 is disposed is, the lower the brightness of the light emitted by the backlight source 1021 under the driving of the apparatus for displaying the image 101 is.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, as the brightness of the light emitted by the backlight source 1021 may be correlated with the reference grayscale value of the backlight section where the backlight source 1021 is disposed and the reference grayscale value of the backlight section is correlated with the grayscale values of the respective pixels in the first image region corresponding to the backlight section, when driving the backlight source 1021 to emit light based on the reference grayscale value of the backlight section where the backlight source 1021 is disposed, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 can adjust the brightness of the light emitted by the plurality of backlight sources 1021 based on the brightness of the plurality of first image regions of the first target image, which makes a light portion of an image displayed by the display device 10 lighter and a dark portion thereof darker. Thus, the image has a relatively higher contrast, and the display device has a better display effect.

In step 206, the first display panel is driven to perform display based on the first display image.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may drive the first display panel 103 to perform display based on the grayscale values of the respective pixels in the first display image. For example, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may drive the first display panel 103 to display the first display image. As the first display panel 103 is the black-and-white display panel, the first display image displayed by the first display panel 103 may be a grayscale image.

In step 207, the second display panel is driven to perform display based on the second display image.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may drive the second display panel 104 to perform display based on the grayscale values of the respective pixels in the second display image. For example, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may drive the second display panel 104 to display the second display image. As the second display panel 104 is the color display panel, the second display image displayed by the second display panel 104 may be a color image.

It should be noted that the order of steps of the method for displaying the image according to the embodiment of the present disclosure may be adjusted properly and the steps may also be correspondingly increased or decreased according to the situation. For example, step 203 may be executed before step 202 and step 205 to step 207 may be executed at the same time. Change methods that would be readily conceived by any person skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in the present disclosure should be within the scope of protection of the present disclosure and thus will not be described herein.

In summary, in the method for displaying the image according to the embodiment of the present disclosure, the brightness of the light emitted by the plurality of backlight sources can be adjusted based on the brightness of the plurality of first image regions of the acquired first target image, which makes the light portion of the image displayed by the display device lighter and the dark portion thereof darker. Thus, the image has a relatively higher contrast, and the display device has the better display effect. Moreover, as the brightness of the light emitted by the backlight source may be adjusted flexibly through the method according to the present disclosure, the power consumption of the display device can be effectively reduced. In addition, through the method according to the present disclosure, on the premise of adjusting the brightness of the backlight source, the image displayed by the first display panel and the image displayed by the second display panel can be controlled respectively, and thus the display effect of the display device can be further ensured.

FIG. 5 is a flowchart of a method for displaying an image according to another embodiment of the present disclosure. The method may be applicable to the apparatus for displaying the image 101 of the display device. Referring to FIG. 5 , it can be seen that the method may include the following steps.

In step 301, a first target image with a third resolution and a second target image with a fourth resolution are acquired.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the display device may perform display based on a received source image in a film source. The source image in the film source may be a color image with a second resolution. The display device may include a processing module for processing the source image. The processing module may receive the source image, and acquire the first target image with the third resolution and the second target image with the fourth resolution by processing the source image. The apparatus for displaying the image 101 in the display device may be connected to the processing module and may acquire the first target image with the third resolution and the second target image with the fourth resolution from the processing module. Both the first target image and the second target image may be color images. The first target image may include a plurality of first image regions in one-to-one correspondence with a plurality of backlight sections.

Referring to FIG. 3 , the first target image may be an image acquired by down-sampling the source image. Referring to FIG. 4 , the second target image may be an image acquired by cropping a central region of the source image. For example, it is assumed that the source image may be divided into 3 rows and 3 columns, 9 regions in total, the second target image may be an image of a region in the second row and second column among the 9 regions of the source image.

Optionally, both the third resolution and the fourth resolution may be less than the second resolution. Exemplarily, the third resolution may be 1080*1080 and the fourth resolution may be 1440*1440.

In step 302, for each of the backlight sections, a reference grayscale value of the backlight section is determined based on grayscale values of respective pixels in the first image region corresponding to the backlight section.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the plurality of first image regions included in the first target image may be in one-to-one correspondence with the plurality of backlight sections. As the first display panel 103 is the black-and-white display panel, the first display image may be a grayscale image. When acquiring the first display image based on the first target image, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 needs to perform grayscale processing on the first target image firstly and then determine the reference grayscale value of the backlight section corresponding to the first image region. The number of pixels included in the first target image which is subjected to grayscale processing may be equal to the number of pixels included in the first target image which is not subjected to grayscale processing.

Optionally, the process of performing grayscale processing on the first target image may be represented as:

ori _(g)(i,j)=max(ori1_(rgb)(i,j,1:3))  Formula (1).

In formula (1) above, ori_(g)(i, j) represents the grayscale value of the pixel in the i^(th) row and j^(th) column in the first target image subjected to grayscale processing, Max( ) represents the maximum value, and max(ori1_(rgb)(i, j,1:3)) represents the maximum pixel value in the first to third channels of the pixels in the i^(th) row and the j^(th) column in the first target image.

Wherein i may be a positive integer less than or equal to the number of pixel rows of the first target image, and j may be a positive integer less than or equal to the number of pixel columns of the first target image. The first to third channels are a red (R) channel, a green (G) channel and a blue (B) channel.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, for each of the backlight sections, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 of the display device may determine the reference grayscale value of the backlight section based on the maximum grayscale value of the respective pixels in the first image region which is subjected to grayscale processing and corresponds to the backlight section. The maximum grayscale value of the respective pixels in the first image region subjected to grayscale processing may refer to the maximum grayscale value among a plurality of grayscale values of a plurality of pixels in the first image region after the first image region is subjected to grayscale processing.

The reference grayscale value may be positively correlated with the maximum grayscale value of the respective pixels in the first image region. That is, the larger the maximum grayscale value of the respective pixels in the first image region is, the larger the reference grayscale value determined by the apparatus for displaying the image 101 is; and the smaller the maximum grayscale value of the respective pixels in the first image region is, the smaller the reference grayscale value determined by the apparatus for displaying the image 101 is. Exemplarily, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may directly determine the maximum grayscale value of the respective pixels in the first image region as the reference grayscale value.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may determine the reference grayscale value of the backlight section corresponding to the first image region based on the maximum grayscale value of the respective pixels and an average grayscale value of the respective pixels in the first image region subjected to grayscale processing. The average grayscale value of the respective pixels in the first image region subjected to grayscale processing may refer to the average grayscale value among the plurality of grayscale values of the plurality of pixels in the first image region after the first image region is subjected to grayscale processing.

The reference grayscale value may also be positively correlated with the average grayscale value of the respective pixels in the first image region. That is, the larger the average grayscale value of the respective pixels in the first image region is, the larger the reference grayscale value determined by the apparatus for displaying the image 101 is; and the smaller the average grayscale value of the respective pixels in the first image region is, the smaller the reference grayscale value determined by the apparatus for displaying the image 101 is.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, each first image region block may be expressed with formula (2) below:

$\begin{matrix} {{block} = {{ori}_{g}\left( {{{{{floor}\left( \frac{i - 1}{w1} \right)}*w1} + {1:{{floor}\left( \frac{i - 1}{w1} \right)}*w1} + {w1}},{{{{floor}\left( \frac{j - 1}{w1} \right)}*w1} + {1:{{floor}\left( \frac{j - 1}{w1} \right)}*w1} + {w1}}} \right)}} & {{Formula}(2)} \end{matrix}$

In formula (2) above, floor( ) represents a floor function, and w1 represents the number of rows or columns of pixels included in the first image region. Formula (2) above may indicate that the first image region block may include pixels in

${{{floor}\left( \frac{i - 1}{w1} \right)}*w1} + 1^{th}$

row to

${{{floor}\left( \frac{i - 1}{w1} \right)}*w1} + {w1^{th}}$

row and

${{{floor}\left( \frac{j - 1}{w1} \right)}*w1} + 1^{th}$

column to

${{{floor}\left( \frac{j - 1}{w1} \right)}*w1} + {w1^{th}}$

column.

According to formula (2) above, the reference grayscale value BL_(w) of the backlight section corresponding to each first image region determined by the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may satisfy:

$\begin{matrix} {{{BL}_{w}\left( {{{{floor}\left( \frac{i - 1}{w1} \right)} + 1},{{{floor}\left( \frac{j - 1}{w1} \right)} + 1}} \right)} = {{a2*{{mean}({block})}} + {b2*{{\max({block})}.}}}} & {{Formula}(3)} \end{matrix}$

In formula (3) above, mean( ) means an average value, a2 is a weight coefficient of the average grayscale value and b2 is a weight coefficient of the maximum grayscale value. The value range of a2 may be 0≤a≤1, the value range of b2 may be 0≤b≤1, and a2+b2=1. For example, a2=0, and b2=1. In this case, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may directly determine the maximum grayscale value of the respective pixels in the first image region as the reference grayscale value of the backlight section corresponding to the first image region.

It is assumed that the resolution of the first target image is 1080*1080, that is, the number of rows of pixels included in each first target image may be 1080, and the number of columns of pixels included in each first target image may also be 1080, the value range of i may be 1≤i≤1080, and the value range of j may be 1≤j≤1080. It is assumed that the first target image includes 30*30 first image regions, the number w1 of rows or columns of pixels included in each first image region may be equal to 1080÷30=36. That is, formula (2) above may satisfy:

$\begin{matrix} {{block} = {{{ori}_{g}\left( {{{{{floor}\left( \frac{i - 1}{36} \right)}*36} + {36:{{floor}\left( \frac{i - 1}{36} \right)}*36} + 36},{{{{floor}\left( \frac{j - 1}{36} \right)}*36} + {1:{{floor}\left( \frac{j - 1}{36} \right)}*36} + 36}} \right)}.}} & {{Formula}(4)} \end{matrix}$

Formula (3) above may satisfy:

$\begin{matrix} {{{BL}_{w}\left( {{{{floor}\left( \frac{i - 1}{36} \right)} + 1},{{{floor}\left( \frac{j - 1}{36} \right)} + 1}} \right)} = {{a2*{{mean}({block})}} + {b2*{{\max({block})}.}}}} & {{Formula}(5)} \end{matrix}$

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, for avoiding the problem that backlight provided by the backlight module 102 is insufficient, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may acquire a plurality of initial reference grayscale values by determining, for each of the backlight sections, the initial reference grayscale value of the backlight section based on the grayscale values of the respective pixels in the first image region corresponding to the backlight section. The initial reference grayscale value of each of the backlight sections may be determined by the apparatus for displaying the image 101 based on the maximum grayscale value of the respective pixels and the average grayscale value of the respective pixels in the first image region corresponding to the backlight section after grayscale processing. Afterwards, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may determine the reference grayscale value of each of the backlight sections based on a target initial reference grayscale value of a target backlight section of the plurality of backlight sections. The target backlight section is disposed at the center of the plurality of backlight sections.

The apparatus for displaying the image 101 may arrange the plurality of acquired initial reference grayscale values of the plurality of backlight sections based on to an arrangement mode of the backlight sections. That is, the plurality of initial reference grayscale values are arranged in an array and an arrangement position of each initial reference grayscale value corresponds to an arrangement position of the backlight section to which the initial reference grayscale value belongs. The apparatus for displaying the image 101 may add a plurality of supplementing grayscale values to four edges of the array formed by the plurality of initial reference grayscale values, and each supplementing grayscale value may be 0.

Exemplarily, it is assumed that the backlight module 102 includes 30*30 backlight sections, the number of the determined initial reference grayscale values may also be 30*30. The number after the plurality of supplementing grayscale values are added may be 30+((V−1)÷2)*((V−1)÷2). That is, (V−1)÷2 rows or (V−1)÷2 columns of supplementing grayscale values may be added to each of four edges of the array formed by the plurality of initial reference grayscale values.

After the supplementing grayscale values are added, the plurality of initial reference grayscale values arranged in an array may have a plurality of V*V matrices. The plurality of initial reference grayscale values are traversed, such that each initial reference grayscale value is a matrix center of a V*V matrix.

For each V*V matrix, if the initial reference grayscale value of the matrix center is greater than 20 and less than 235 and is the maximum initial reference grayscale value in the V*V matrix, the reference grayscale value of the backlight section corresponding to the matrix center may be acquired by adding 20 to the initial reference grayscale value. If the initial reference grayscale value of the matrix center is less than the maximum initial reference grayscale value in the V*V matrix and greater than 0 and the maximum initial reference grayscale value in the V*V matrix is greater than 130, the reference grayscale value of the backlight section corresponding to the matrix center may be acquired by adding 0.8 time of a difference between the maximum initial reference grayscale value in the V*V matrix and the initial reference grayscale value of the matrix center to the initial reference grayscale value.

Optionally, if for each V*V matrix, the initial reference grayscale value center of the backlight section corresponding to the matrix center of the V*V matrix satisfies:

center>20& & center=max(BL _(W)(i−(V−1)÷2:i+(V−1)÷2,j−(V−1)÷2:j+(V−1)÷2)),& &center<235

the reference grayscale value of the backlight section corresponding to the matrix center of the V*V matrix satisfies:

BL(i,j)=center+20.

If for each V*V matrix, the initial reference grayscale value center of the backlight section corresponding to the matrix center of the V*V matrix satisfies:

center<max(BL _(W)(i−(V−1)÷2:i+(V−1)÷2,j−(V−1)÷2:j+(V−1)÷2))& &center>235,& &max(BL _(W)(i−(V−1)÷2:i+(V−1)÷2,j−(V−1)÷2:j+(V−1)÷2))>130

the reference grayscale value of the backlight section corresponding to the matrix center of the V*V matrix satisfies:

BL(i,j)=center+max(BL _(W)(i−(V−1)÷2:i+(V−1)÷2,j−(V−1)÷2:j+(V−1)÷2)−center)*0.8

In the above formula, && is configured to represent “and”, that is, the conditions that the initial reference grayscale value center simultaneously satisfy. Wherein max(BL_(W)(i−(V−1)÷2: i+(V−1)÷2, j−(V−1)÷2: j+(V−1)÷2)) is the maximum initial reference grayscale value in the V*V matrix. It is assumed that V is 5, the above conditions may be:

if for each 5*5 matrix, the initial reference grayscale value center of the backlight section corresponding to the matrix center of the 5*5 matrix satisfies:

center>20& & center=max(BL _(W)(i−2:i+2,j−2:j+2)),& &center<235

the reference grayscale value of the backlight section corresponding to the matrix center of the V*V matrix satisfies:

BL(i,j)=center+20.

If for each 5*5 matrix, the initial reference grayscale value center of the backlight section corresponding to the matrix center of the 5*5 matrix satisfies:

center<max(BL _(W)(i−2:i+2,j−2:j+2))& &center>235& &max(BL _(W)(i−2:i+2,j−2:j+2))>130

the reference grayscale value of the backlight section corresponding to the matrix center of the 5*5 matrix satisfies:

BL(i,j)=center+max(BL _(W)(i−2:i+2,j−2:j+2)−center)*0.8.

In step 303, an initial image with a fifth resolution is acquired by processing the first target image with a bilinear interpolation algorithm.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, a size of the first display panel 103 may be greater than a size of the second display panel 104, which may cause that an orthographic projection of a pixel disposed on an edge in the first display panel 103 on the second display panel 104 does not falls within the second display panel 104. In this case, an effective display region of the first display panel 103 may be less than an actual display region of the first display panel 103. An orthographic projection of a pixel of the effective display region of the first display panel 103 on the second display panel 104 falls within the second display panel 104.

Exemplarily, the resolution of the first display panel 103 is 720*720, that is, the number of pixel rows and the number of pixel columns of the first display panel 103 are 720. The number of pixel rows and the number of pixel columns of the effective display region of the first display panel 103 are less than 720, and for example may be 713.

For ensuring the display effect of the display device, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may firstly acquire initial images, the number of which is the same as the number of pixels of the effective display region of the first display panel 103. Optionally, referring to formula (6), the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may acquire the initial image sub11 with the fifth resolution by processing the first target image, which has been subjected to grayscale processing, with the bilinear interpolation algorithm.

sub11=f(ori _(g))  Formula (6).

In formula (6) above, f( ) is configured to represent the bilinear interpolation algorithm. Exemplarily, the fifth resolution of the acquired initial image sub11 may be 713*713. That is, the initial image sub11 includes 713*713 pixels.

In step 304, a first display image is acquired by performing first edge pixel supplementing processing on the initial image.

As the fifth resolution of the initial image acquired according to step 303 above is less than the first resolution of the first display panel 103, it needs to process the initial image, such that the resolution of the processed image (first display image) may be equal to the first resolution, which facilitates the display of the first display panel 103.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may acquire the first display image by performing first edge pixel supplementing processing on the initial image. The resolution of the first display image may be equal to the first resolution of the first display panel 103. The first edge pixel supplementing processing may be pixel filling processing for a region with an edge distal from the center in the initial image.

Optionally, pixels in the initial image may be disposed in an initial region of the first display image. Pixel values of the pixels in the initial region of the first display image satisfy:

sub1(r:r+s1−1,c:c+s1−1)=sub11  Formula (7).

In formula (7) above, sub1 is configured to represent an image acquired by performing first edge pixel supplementing processing on the initial image, r is configured to represent the row number of the first row of pixels of the initial region of the first display image in the first display image, and c is configured to represent the column number of the first column of pixels of the initial region of the first display image in the first display image, and s1 is configured to represent the number of pixel rows or the number of pixel columns of the effective display region of the first display panel 103. For example, it is assumed that s1=713, formula (7) may be:

sub1(r:r+712,c:c+712)=sub11.

The initial image may have a first edge, a second edge, a third edge, and a fourth edge. Both the first edge and the second edge may be parallel to a pixel row direction, and both the third edge and the fourth edge may be parallel to a pixel column direction. That is, the first edge is parallel to the second edge, the third edge is parallel to the fourth edge and the first edge is perpendicular to the third edge.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, referring to FIG. 6 , performing first edge pixel supplementing processing on the initial image may include the following steps.

In step 3041, a plurality of first supplementing pixels are added to a side, distal from the center, of the first edge in the initial image.

A grayscale value of each of the first supplementing pixels may be equal to a grayscale value of a third pixel, which is disposed in the same column as the first supplementing pixel, in the first edge.

Exemplarily, it is assumed that the first edge is an upper edge of the initial image, the grayscale values of the plurality of first supplementing pixels may satisfy:

sub1(1:r−1,:)=sub1(r,:)  Formula (8).

Formula (8) above may means that for each column of pixels in the first display image, the grayscale values of r^(th) row of pixels in the first display image are assigned to the first row of pixels to the (r−1)^(th) row of pixels in the first display image.

In step 3042, a plurality of second supplementing pixels are added to a side, distal from the center, of a second edge in the initial image.

A grayscale value of each of the second supplementing pixels may be equal to a grayscale value of a fourth pixel, which is disposed in the same column as the second supplementing pixel, in the second edge.

Exemplarily, it is assumed that the second edge is a lower edge of the initial image, the grayscale values of the plurality of second supplementing pixels may satisfy:

sub1(r+s1:s2,:)=sub1(r+s1−1,:)  Formula (9).

Formula (9) above may means that for each column of pixels in the first display image, the grayscale values of the (r+s1−1)^(th) row of pixels in the first display image are assigned to the (r+s1)^(th) row of pixels to s2^(th) row of pixels in the first display image, wherein s2 represents the number of pixel rows of the first display panel 103. For example, it is assumed that s2=720, formula (9) above may be sub1(r+713:720, :)=sub1(r+712, :).

In step 3043, a plurality of third supplementing pixels are added to a side, distal from the center, of a third edge in the initial image.

A grayscale value of each of the third supplementing pixels may be equal to a grayscale value of a fifth pixel, which is disposed in the same row as the third supplementing pixel, in the third edge. Exemplarily, it is assumed that the third edge is a left edge of the initial image, the grayscale values of the plurality of third supplementing pixels may satisfy:

sub1(:,1:c−1)=sub1(:c)  Formula (10).

Formula (10) above may means that for each row of pixels in the first display image, the grayscale values of c^(th) column of pixels in the first display image are assigned to first column of pixels to the (c−1)^(th) column of pixels in the first display image.

In step 3044, a plurality of fourth supplementing pixels is added to a side, distal from the center, of a fourth edge in the initial image.

A grayscale value of each of the fourth supplementing pixels is equal to a grayscale value of a sixth pixel, which is disposed in the same row as the fourth supplementing pixel, in the fourth edge.

Exemplarily, it is assumed that the fourth edge is a right edge of the initial image, the grayscale values of the plurality of fourth supplementing pixels may satisfy:

sub1(:c+s1:s2)=sub1(:c+s1−1)  Formula (11).

Formula (11) above may means that for each row of pixels in the first display image, the grayscale values of the (c+s1−1)^(th) column of pixels in the first display image are assigned to the (c+s1)^(th) column of pixels to the s1^(th) column of pixels in the first display image.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, after first edge pixel supplementing processing is performed on the initial image, in order to improve the transmittance of the first display panel 103, the initial image subjected to first edge pixel supplementing processing may be processed continuously. For example, referring to formula (12), the first display image sub may be acquired by properly increasing the grayscale values of the respective pixels in the initial image subjected to first edge pixel supplementing processing.

sub=((sub1/255)^(γ0)*255  Formula (12).

In formula (12) above, γ0 may be a grayscale value raise parameter. That is, the grayscale values of the respective pixels in the first display image sub acquired through formula (12) above may be relatively larger and thus the light output efficiency of the backlight module 102 may be better under the circumstance of displaying the first display image sub by the first display panel 103.

In step 305, the grayscale values of the respective pixels in the first target image are updated based on the reference grayscale values of the plurality of backlight sections.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, grayscale values of respective pixels in the second display image displayed by the second display panel 104 may be affected by the brightness of the light emitted by the backlight source 1021 in the backlight module 102. Therefore, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 of the display device may update the grayscale values of the respective pixels in the first target image based on the reference grayscale values of the plurality of backlight sections. Thus, it is convenient for the apparatus for displaying the image 101 to determine the second display image based on the updated first target image.

The brightness of the light emitted by the backlight source 1021 is correlated with the reference grayscale value of the backlight section where the backlight source 1021 is disposed. For example, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 of the display device may drive the backlight source 1021 to emit light based on the reference grayscale value of the backlight section where the backlight source 1021 is disposed.

Referring to FIG. 7 , step 305 may include the following steps.

In step 3051, for each first pixel in each of the first image regions, a distance between the first pixel and each of at least one first target backlight section is determined.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the at least one first target backlight section includes a backlight section corresponding to the first image region where the first pixel is disposed, and a backlight region, a distance between which and the backlight section corresponding to the first image region where the first pixel is disposed is less than a distance threshold.

For each first pixel in each of the first image regions, the distance between the first pixel and any first target backlight section in the backlight module 102 is equal to an arithmetic square root of the sum of a first square and a second square. The first square may be a square of a difference between an abscissa of the first pixel and an abscissa of a center pixel of the first image region corresponding to the first target backlight section, and the second square may be a square of a difference between an ordinate of the first pixel and an ordinate of the center pixel of the first image region corresponding to the first target backlight section. Moreover, the coordinates of the first pixel in the first row and first column of the first target image may be (0, 0).

Optionally, the distance d₁(k, z) between the first pixel and (k, z)^(th) first target backlight section in the backlight module 102 satisfies:

$\begin{matrix} {{d_{l}\left( {k,z} \right)} = {\sqrt{\begin{matrix} {\left( {{{coh}_{led}\left( {k,z} \right)} - {{colh}\left( {1:\left( {w1*w1} \right)} \right)}} \right)^{2} +} \\ \left( {{{cow}_{led}\left( {k,z} \right)} - {{colw}\left( {1:\left( {w1*w1} \right)} \right)}} \right)^{2} \end{matrix}}.}} & {{Formula}(13)} \end{matrix}$

The plurality of backlight sections in the backlight module 102 are arranged in a plurality of rows and a plurality of columns and the (k, z)^(th) first target backlight section refers to the backlight section in the k^(th) row and the z^(th) column among the plurality of backlight sections. Wherein cod_(led)(k, z) is the ordinate of the center pixel of the first image region corresponding to the (k, z)^(th) first target backlight section, d colh(1:(w1*w1)) is the ordinate of the first pixel in the first image region, cow_(led)(k, z) is the abscissa of the center pixel of the first image region corresponding to the (k, z)^(th) first target backlight section and colw(1:(w1*w1)) is the abscissa of the first pixel in the first image region.

Exemplarily, it is assumed that the number of rows or columns of pixels included in each of the first image regions is w1=36, formula (13) above may be:

${d_{l}\left( {k,z} \right)} = {\sqrt{\begin{matrix} {\left( {{{coh}_{led}\left( {k,z} \right)} - {{colh}\left( {1:\left( {36*36} \right)} \right)}} \right)^{2} +} \\ \left( {{{cow}_{led}\left( {k,z} \right)} - {{colw}\left( {1:\left( {36*36} \right)} \right)}} \right)^{2} \end{matrix}}.}$

In step 3052, a light-splitting weight of light emitted by the at least one first target backlight section to the first pixel is determined based on the distance between the first pixel and each first target backlight section.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the light emitted by the first target backlight section may refer to light emitted by the backlight source 1021 included in the first target backlight section. The at least one first target backlight section may include the backlight section corresponding to the first image region where the first pixel is disposed, and a backlight region in an F1*F2 neighborhood of the backlight section corresponding to the first image region where the first pixel is disposed. F1 and F2 may be integers greater than 1, and F1 may be or not be equal to F2. K may be an integer greater than or equal to 1 and less than or equal to F1, and z may be an integer greater than or equal to 1 and less than or equal to F2.

Exemplarily, both F1 and F2 may be equal to 7, that is, the at least one first target backlight section may include: 7*7=49 backlight sections. Moreover, k and z may be an integer greater than or equal to 1 and less than or equal to 7.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the distance between each first pixel in each of the first image regions and the first target backlight section may be determined according to step 3051 above. Afterwards, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may determine whether the distance between the first pixel and the first target backlight section is greater than the first distance threshold.

If the calculated distance between a certain first pixel and a certain first target backlight section is greater than the first distance threshold, it indicates that the brightness of the light emitted by the first target backlight section has a relatively less effect on the first pixel and the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may directly determine the light-splitting weight of the light emitted by the first target backlight section to the first pixel as 0.

If the calculated distance between a certain first pixel and a certain first target backlight section is less than or equal to the first distance threshold, it indicates that the brightness of the light emitted by the first target backlight section has a relatively greater effect on the first pixel and for this first pixel, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may acquire the light-splitting weight of the first target backlight section to the first pixel by calculating the distance between the first pixel and the first target backlight section with a first point diffusion curve algorithm.

Optionally, the first point diffusion curve algorithm may be acquired by performing curve fitting based on the distance between the backlight section and the first pixel, and the brightness of the light emitted by the plurality of backlight sections. A shape of a first point diffusion curve is correlated with a shape of the backlight source included in the backlight section.

Exemplarily, the light-splitting weight determined with the first point diffusion curve algorithm may satisfy:

$\begin{matrix} {{w_{l}\left( {k,z} \right)} = {{g1*e^{- {(\frac{{d_{l}({k,z})} + {h1}}{p1})}^{2}}} + {g2*{e^{- {(\frac{{d_{l}({k,z})} + {h2}}{p2})}^{2}}.}}}} & {{Formula}(14)} \end{matrix}$

In formula (14) above, e is a natural constant, and g1, h1, p1, g2, h2 and p2 are fitting coefficients. Exemplarily, it is assumed that g1=1.009, h1=2.887, p1=40.85, g2=−0.07413, h2=−54.92 and p2=24.19, formula (14) above may be:

${w_{l}\left( {k,z} \right)} = {{1.009*e^{- {(\frac{{d_{l}({k,z})} + 2.887}{40.85})}^{2}}} - {0.07413*{e^{- {(\frac{{d_{l}({k,z})} - 54.92}{24.19})}^{2}}.}}}$

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the first distance threshold may be determined based on the value of F1, the value of F2 and the number w1 of rows or columns of pixels included in each first image region. Exemplarily, it is assumed that F1=F2=7 and the number of rows or columns of pixels included in each first image region w1=36, the first distance threshold s1 may be s1=36÷2+36×(7−1)÷2=126. The unit of the first distance threshold may be the number of pixels.

That is, if the distance d₁(k,z) between certain first pixel and certain first target backlight section 1021 determined according to step 3051 above is greater than the total size of 126 pixels in the first display panel, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may determine the light-splitting weight of the first target backlight section 1021 to the first pixel as 0. If the distance d₁(k,z) between certain first pixel and certain first target backlight section 1021 determined according to step 3051 above is less than or equal to the total size of 126 pixels in the first display panel, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may substitute this distance d₁(k,z) to formula (14) above and calculate the light-splitting weight w₁(k,z).

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may normalize a plurality of determined light-splitting weights. The sum of all normalized light-splitting weights may be equal to 1. Optionally, the light-splitting weight W₁(k,z) acquired after light-splitting weight w₁(k,z) is normalized may satisfy:

$\begin{matrix} {{W_{l}\left( {k,z} \right)} = {\frac{w_{l}\left( {k,z} \right)}{{\sum}_{1}^{F1}{\sum}_{1}^{F2}{w_{l}\left( {k,z} \right)}}.}} & {{Formula}(15)} \end{matrix}$

In step 3053, the grayscale value of the first pixel is updated based on a reference grayscale value of the at least one first target backlight section and the light-splitting weight of the light emitted by each first target backlight section to the first pixel.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may perform weighted summation on the reference grayscale value of the at least one first target backlight region and the light-splitting weight of the light emitted by each first target backlight section to the first pixel and determine the grayscale value after weighted summation as the updated grayscale value of the first pixel.

Optionally, the updated grayscale value Isim₁ of the first pixel may satisfy:

$\begin{matrix} {{Isim}_{i} = {{{\sum}_{1}^{F1}{\sum}_{1}^{F2}{W_{l}\left( {{k - {\frac{{F1} - 1}{2}:k} + \frac{{F1} - 1}{2}},{{z - \frac{{F2} - 1}{2}}:{z + \frac{{F2} - 1}{2}}}} \right)}} + {{{BL}_{w}\left( {{k - {\frac{{F1} - 1}{2}:k} + \frac{{F1} - 1}{2}},{{z - \frac{{F2} - 1}{2}}:{z + \frac{{F2} - 1}{2}}}} \right)}.}}} & {{Formula}(16)} \end{matrix}$

In step 306, the grayscale values of the respective pixels in the second target image are updated based on the reference grayscale values of the plurality of backlight sections.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the grayscale values of the respective pixels in the second display image displayed by the second display panel 104 may be affected by the brightness of the light emitted by the backlight source 1021 in the backlight module 102. Therefore, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 of the display device may update the grayscale values of the respective pixels in the second target image based on the reference grayscale values of the plurality of backlight sections. Thus, it is convenient for the apparatus for displaying the image 101 to determine the second display image based on the updated second target image.

The second target image may include a plurality of second image regions in one-to-one correspondence with the plurality of backlight sections.

Referring to FIG. 8 , step 306 may include the following steps.

In step 3061, for each second pixel in each of the second image regions, a distance between the second pixel and each of at least one second target backlight section is determined.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the at least one second target backlight section includes a backlight section corresponding to the second image region where the second pixel is disposed, and a backlight region, a distance between which and the backlight section corresponding to the second image region where the second pixel is disposed is less than a distance threshold.

For each second pixel in each of the second image regions, the distance between the second pixel and any second target backlight section in the backlight module 102 is equal to an arithmetic square root of the sum of a third square and a fourth square.

The third square may be a square of a difference between an abscissa of the second pixel and an abscissa of a center pixel of the second image region corresponding to the second target backlight section, and the fourth square may be a square of a difference between an ordinate of the second pixel and an ordinate of a center pixel of the second image region corresponding to the second target backlight section. Moreover, the coordinates of the second pixel in the first row and first column of the second target image may be (0, 0).

Optionally, the distance d_(h)(k, z) between the second pixel and the (k, z)^(th) second target backlight section in the backlight module 102 satisfies:

$\begin{matrix} {{d_{h}\left( {k,z} \right)} = {\sqrt{\begin{matrix} {\left. \left( {{{coh}_{led}\left( {k,z} \right)} - {{colh}\left( {w2*w2} \right)}} \right) \right)^{2} +} \\ \left. \left( {{{cow}_{led}\left( {k,z} \right)} - {{colw}\left( {1:{w2*w2}} \right)}} \right) \right)^{2} \end{matrix}}.}} & {{Formula}(17)} \end{matrix}$

The plurality of backlight sections in the backlight module 102 are arranged in a plurality of rows and a plurality of columns. The (k, z)_(th) second target backlight section refers to the backlight section in the k^(th) row and the z^(th) column among the plurality of backlight sections, and w2 represents the number of rows or columns of pixels included in the second image region. coh_(led)(k, z) is the ordinate of the center pixel of the second image region corresponding to the (k, z)_(th) second target backlight section and colh(1:(w2*w2)) is the ordinate of the second pixel in the second image region. cow_(led)(k,z) is the abscissa of the center pixel of the second image region corresponding to the second target backlight section and colw(1:(w2*w2)) is the ordinate of the second pixel in the second image region.

Exemplarily, it is assumed that the number of rows or columns of pixels included in each second image region is w2=144, formula (17) above may be:

${d_{h}\left( {k,z} \right)} = {\sqrt{\begin{matrix} {\left( {{{coh}_{led}\left( {k,z} \right)} - {{colh}\left( {1:\left( {144*144} \right)} \right)}} \right)^{2} +} \\ \left( {{{cow}_{led}\left( {k,z} \right)} - {{colw}\left( {1:\left( {144*144} \right)} \right)}} \right)^{2} \end{matrix}}.}$

In step 3062, a light-splitting weight of light emitted by the at least one second target backlight section to the second pixel is determined based on the distance between the second pixel and each second target backlight section.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the light emitted by the second target backlight section may refer to light emitted by the backlight source 1021 included in the second target backlight section. The at least one second target backlight section includes the backlight section corresponding to the second image region where the second pixel is disposed, and a backlight region in an F1*F2 neighborhood of the backlight section corresponding to the second image region where the second pixel is disposed. F1 and F2 may be integers greater than 1, and F1 may be or not be equal to F2. K may be an integer greater than or equal to 1 and less than or equal to F1, and z may be an integer greater than or equal to 1 and less than or equal to F2.

Exemplarily, both F1 and F2 may be equal to 7, that is, the at least one second target backlight section may include 7*7=49 backlight sections. Moreover, k and z may be an integer greater than or equal to 1 and less than or equal to 7.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the distance between each second pixel in each of the second image regions and the second target backlight section may be determined according to step 3061 above. Afterwards, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may determine whether the distance between the second pixel and the second target backlight section is greater than the second distance threshold.

If the calculated distance between a certain second pixel and a certain second target backlight section is greater than the second distance threshold, it indicates that the brightness of the light emitted by the second target backlight section has a relatively less effect on the second pixel and the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may directly determine the light-splitting weight of the light emitted by the second target backlight section to the second pixel as 0.

If the calculated distance between a certain second pixel and a certain second target backlight section is less than or equal to the second distance threshold, it indicates that the brightness of the light emitted by the second target backlight section has a relatively greater effect on the second pixel. For this second pixel, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may acquire the light-splitting weight of the second target backlight section to the second pixel by calculating the distance between the second pixel and the second target backlight section with a second point diffusion curve algorithm.

Optionally, the second point diffusion curve algorithm may be acquired by performing curve fitting based on the distance between the backlight section and the second pixel, and the brightness of the light emitted by the plurality of backlight sections. A shape of a second point diffusion curve is also correlated with a shape of the backlight source included in the backlight section.

Exemplarily, the light-splitting weight w₁(k, z) determined with the second point diffusion curve algorithm may satisfy:

$\begin{matrix} {{w_{h}\left( {k,z} \right)} = {{g3*e^{- {(\frac{{d_{h}({k,z})} + {h3}}{p3})}^{2}}} + {g4*{e^{- {(\frac{{d_{l}({k,z})} + {h4}}{p4})}^{2}}.}}}} & {{Formula}(18)} \end{matrix}$

In formula (18) above, e is a natural constant, and g3, h3, p3, g4, h4 and p4 are fitting coefficients. Exemplarily, it is assumed that g3=−0.1615, h3=38.23, p3=43.37, g4=−1.189, h4=69.1 and p4=217.3, formula (18) above may be:

${w_{h}\left( {k,z} \right)} = {{{- 0.1615}*e^{- {(\frac{{d_{h}({k,z})} + 38.23}{43.37})}^{2}}} - {1.189*{e^{- {(\frac{{d_{l}({k,z})} + 69.1}{217.3})}^{2}}.}}}$

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the second distance threshold may be determined based on F1, F2 and the number w2 of rows or columns of pixels included in each second image region. Exemplarily, it is assumed that F1=F2=7 and the number of rows or columns of pixels included in each second image region w2=144, the second distance threshold s2 may be s2=144÷2+144×(7−1)÷2=504. The unit of the second distance threshold may be the number of pixels.

That is, if the distance d_(h)(k, z) between a certain second pixel and a certain second target backlight section 1021 determined according to step 3061 above is greater than the total size of 504 pixels in the second display panel, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may determine the light-splitting weight of the second target backlight section 1021 to the second pixel as 0. If the distance d_(h)(k, z) between a certain second pixel and a certain second target backlight section 1021 determined according to step 3061 above is less than or equal to the total size of 504 pixels in the second display panel, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may substitute this distance d_(h)(k, z) to formula (18) above and calculate the light-splitting weight.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may normalize a plurality of determined light-splitting weights. The sum of all normalized light-splitting weights may be equal to 1. Optionally, the light-splitting weight W₁(k, z) acquired after w₁(k,z) is normalized may satisfy:

$\begin{matrix} {{W_{h}\left( {k,z} \right)} = {\frac{w_{h}\left( {k,z} \right)}{{\sum}_{1}^{F1}{\sum}_{1}^{F2}{w_{h}\left( {k,z} \right)}}.}} & {{Formula}(19)} \end{matrix}$

In step 3063, the grayscale value of the second pixel is updated based on a reference grayscale value of the at least one second target backlight section and the light-splitting weight of the light emitted by each second target backlight section to the second pixel.

In step 307, the grayscale values of the respective pixels in the second display image are determined based on the grayscale values and updated grayscale values of the respective pixels in the first target image, the grayscale values and updated grayscale values of the respective pixels in the second target image, and the grayscale values of the respective pixels in the first display image.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the second display image may include a central region sub-image and a peripheral region sub-image surrounding the central region sub-image. The grayscale values of the respective pixels in the peripheral region sub-image may be correlated with the grayscale values and updated grayscale values of the respective pixels in the first target image, and the grayscale values of the respective pixels in the first display image. Moreover, the grayscale values of the respective pixels in the central region sub-image may be correlated with the grayscale values and updated grayscale values of the respective pixels in the second target image, and the grayscale values of the respective pixels in the first display image.

Referring to FIG. 9 , step 307 may include the following steps.

In step 3071, a first theoretical transmittance of the first target image and a second theoretical transmittance of the second target image are determined.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may determine the first theoretical transmittance of the first target image based on the grayscale values of the respective pixels in the first target image, and determine the second theoretical transmittance of the second target image based on the grayscale values of the respective pixels in the second target image.

The second theoretical transmittance t_ori2_(rgb) of the second target image ori2_(rgb) may satisfy:

$\begin{matrix} {{{t\_ ori}2_{rgb}} = {\left( \frac{{ori}2_{rgb}}{255} \right)^{2.2}.}} & {{Formula}(22)} \end{matrix}$

In step 3072, a first transmittance of the first display panel is determined based on the grayscale values of the respective pixels in the first display image, a first gamma parameter of the first display panel, the minimum output light brightness of the first display panel, and the maximum output light brightness of the first display panel.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, before the first transmittance of the first display panel 103 is determined, the minimum output light brightness and the maximum output light brightness of the first display panel 103 may be acquired according to an experimental test. The minimum output light brightness of the first display panel 103 may be measured with a testing device when the grayscale values of the respective pixels in the first display panel 103 are 0 and the grayscale values of the respective pixels in the second display panel 104 are 255.

The minimum output light brightness of the second display panel 104 may be measured with a testing device when the grayscale values of the respective pixels in the second display panel 104 are 0 and the grayscale values of the respective pixels in the first display panel 103 are 255. The maximum output light brightness of the second display panel 104 may be measured with a testing device when the grayscale values of the respective pixels in the second display panel 104 are 255 and the grayscale values of the respective pixels in the first display panel 103 are 255.

Optionally, the grayscale values main_1(RGB) of the respective pixels of the peripheral region sub-image of the second display image may satisfy:

$\begin{matrix} {{{main\_ l}({RGB})} = {{{round}\left( {\left\lbrack \frac{{{{tmainl}({RGB})}*M_{\max}} - M_{\min}}{M_{\max} - M_{\min}} \right\rbrack^{\frac{1}{r2}}*255} \right)}.}} & {{Formula}(26)} \end{matrix}$

In formula (26) above, M_(max) may be the maximum output light brightness of the second display panel 104, M_(min) may be the minimum output light brightness of the second display panel 104, the second gamma parameter γ2 may be equal to 2.2, i.e., γ2=2.2. Round( ) may be configured to rounding a function, and the round( ) function may round the value in the parentheses. If the determined grayscale value of certain pixel is main_1(RGB)>255, 255 is directly assigned to the grayscale value of the pixel.

In step 3076, grayscale values of respective pixels of the central region sub-image are determined based on the third transmittance, the second gamma parameter of the second display panel, the minimum output light brightness of the second display panel, and the maximum output light brightness of the second display panel.

Optionally, the grayscale values main_h(RGB) of the respective pixels of the central region sub-image of the second display image may satisfy:

$\begin{matrix} {{{main\_ h}({RGB})} = {{{round}\left( {\left\lbrack \frac{{{{tmainh}({RGB})}*M_{\max}} - M_{\min}}{M_{\max} - M_{\min}} \right\rbrack^{\frac{1}{r2}}*255} \right)}.}} & {{Formula}(27)} \end{matrix}$

In formula (27) above, if the determined grayscale value of certain pixel is main_h(RGB)>255, 255 is directly assigned to the grayscale value of the pixel.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, as the central region sub-image is determined based on the updated second target image, the peripheral region sub-image is determined based on the updated first target image and the resolution of the updated second target image is greater than that of the updated first target image, the resolution of the central region sub-image may be greater than that of the peripheral region sub-image.

In step 308, for each of the backlight sources, the backlight source is driven to emit light based on the reference grayscale value of the backlight section where the backlight source is disposed.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may control the respective backlight sources 1021 in the backlight module 102 to emit light respectively and the brightness of the light emitted by the plurality of backlight sources 1021 may be the same or different. For each of the backlight sources 1021, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may drive the backlight source 1021 to emit light based on the reference grayscale value of the backlight section, where the backlight source 1021 is disposed, determined according to step 302.

For each of the backlight sources 1021, the brightness of the light emitted by the backlight source 1021 may be positively correlated with the reference grayscale value of the backlight section where the backlight source 1021 is disposed. That is, for each of the backlight sources 1021, the larger the reference grayscale value of the backlight section where the backlight source 1021 is disposed is, the higher the brightness of the light emitted by the backlight source 1021 under the driving of the apparatus for displaying the image 101 is; and for each of the backlight sources 1021, the smaller the reference grayscale value of the backlight section where the backlight source 1021 is disposed is, the lower the brightness of the light emitted by the backlight source 1021 under the driving of the apparatus for displaying the image 101 is.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, as the brightness of the light emitted by the backlight source 1021 may be correlated with the reference grayscale value of the backlight section where the backlight source 1021 is disposed and the reference grayscale value of the backlight section is correlated with the grayscale values of the respective pixels in the first image region corresponding to the backlight section, when driving the backlight source 1021 to emit light based on the reference grayscale value of the backlight section where the backlight source 1021 is disposed, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 can adjust the brightness of the light emitted by the plurality of backlight sources 1021 based on the brightness of the plurality of first image regions of the first target image, which makes a light portion of an image displayed by the display device lighter and a dark portion thereof darker. Thus, the image has a relatively higher contrast, and hence the display device has a better display effect.

In step 309, the first display panel is driven to perform display based on the first display image.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may drive the first display panel 103 to perform display based on the first display image. For example, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may drive the first display panel 103 to display the first display image. As the first display panel 103 is the black-and-white display panel, the first display image displayed by the first display panel 103 may be a grayscale image.

In step 310, the second display panel is driven to perform display based on the second display image.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may drive the second display panel to perform display based on the grayscale values of the respective pixels in the second display image. For example, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may drive the second display panel 101 to display the second display image. As the second display panel 104 is the color display panel, the second display image displayed by the second display panel 104 may be a color image.

Since the human vision only has a high resolution in the center of the eyes, rendering is performed with a high-resolution image (central region sub-image) in a central position of the display panel and rendering is performed with a low-resolution image (peripheral region sub-image) in other position of the display panel, thereby increasing a computing speed of the image.

In step 311, positions of effective pixels of the first display panel are determined.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the size of the first display panel 103 may be greater than the size of the second display panel 104, and the number of pixels in the second display panel 104 may be an integer multiple of the number of pixels in the first display panel 103. However, as the size of the first display panel 103 and the size of the second display panel 104 are different, the first display panel 103 and the second display panel 104 may have different degrees of misalignment at different positions, which may affect the display effect of the display device.

Exemplarily, table 1 shows the size of the first display panel 103, the size of pixels in the panel and the resolution. In addition, table 1 also shows the size of the second display panel 104, the size of pixels in the panel and resolution.

TABLE 1 Size of pixels in the panel Name Size (mm) (μm) Resolution Second display panel 62.856 * 62.856 14.55 * 14.55 4320 * 4320 First display panel 63.468 * 63.468 88.15 * 88.15 720 * 720

Referring to table 1 above, it can be seen that the ratio of the size of the pixel in the first display panel 103 in the pixel row direction to the size of the pixel in the second display panel 104 in the pixel row direction may be equal to the ratio of the size of the pixel in the first display panel 103 in the pixel column direction to the size of the pixel in the second display panel 104 in the pixel column direction. However, as the total size of the first display panel 103 is different from the total size of the second display panel 104, the alignment of the first display panel 103 and the second display panel 104 is relatively accurate at a certain position, and the misalignment of the first display panel 103 and the second display panel 104 is more serious at a position farther from this alignment position.

Exemplarily, referring to FIG. 10 , the alignment of the first display panel 103 and the second display panel 104 is most accurate at the position of a circle mark and the misalignment of the first display panel 103 and the second display panel 104 is more serious at a position farther from this circle mark.

For avoiding a greater effect of the misalignment of the first display panel 103 and the second display panel 104 on the display effect of the display device, the grayscale values of the respective pixels in the first display image displayed by the first display panel 103 may be corrected or the grayscale values of the respective pixels in the second display image displayed by the second display panel 104 may be corrected.

As the first display panel 103 has a smaller number of pixels, the time for correcting the grayscale values of the respective pixels in the first display image displayed by the first display panel 103 may be relatively shorter. Thus, the embodiment of the present disclosure is described with an example that the first display image displayed by the first display panel 103 is corrected.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, as the size of the first display panel 103 is greater than the size of the second display panel 104, the orthographic projection of the pixel disposed on the edge in the first display panel 103 on the second display panel 104 may not fall within the second display panel 104.

In this case, for ensuring the display effect of the display device, it needs to determine the positions of the effective pixels of the first display panel 103 and then display the image on the first display panel 103 based on the positions of the effective pixels. An orthographic projection of the effective pixel on the second display panel 104 falls within the second display panel 104.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the first display panel 103 may include a plurality of third panel regions in one-to-one correspondence with the plurality of backlight sections. The second display panel 104 includes a plurality of fourth panel regions in one-to-one correspondence with the plurality of backlight sections. The number of pixels of each fourth panel region in the second display panel 104 is greater than the number of pixels of each third panel region in the first display panel 103.

Referring to FIG. 11 , step 311 may include the following steps.

In step 3111, a test image is acquired.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the display device may include a memory and the memory may store the test image therein. The apparatus for displaying the image 101 of the display device may acquire the test image from the memory. The test image may include a plurality of test patterns. Moreover, the plurality of test patterns may have the same shape. Of course, the plurality of test patterns may also have different shapes.

Referring to FIG. 12 , each test pattern in the test image may be a cross-shaped pattern. Moreover, a pixel value of a region with the cross-shaped pattern in the test image may be 255, and the pixel value of other regions may be 0.

The cross-shaped pattern in the test image includes two bright lines perpendicular to each other and the width of each bright line may be adjusted according to the size of the pixel of the second display panel 104. For example, the width of each bright line may be equal to the width of three pixels in the second display panel 104.

In step 3112, a target third panel region in the plurality of third panel regions and a target fourth panel region in the plurality of fourth panel regions are determined based on the brightness of respective pixels in the test image displayed by the display device.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may determine the target third panel region and the target fourth panel region based on the brightness of the respective pixels in the test image displayed by the display device. The brightness of the test image displayed in the third panel region and the fourth panel region which are determined by the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may be higher than the brightness of the test image displayed in the other panel regions. Moreover, the alignment accuracy between the target third panel region and the target fourth panel region is greater than the alignment accuracy between another third panel region and the corresponding fourth panel region.

Optionally, there may be one or more target third panel regions and one or more target fourth panel regions which are determined by the apparatus for displaying the image 101. Moreover, the number of the determined target third panel regions and the number of the determined target fourth panel regions are the same.

Referring to FIG. 13 , the test image includes 6*6 test patterns and the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may determine that the brightness of the test pattern disposed in the sixth row and second column and the test pattern disposed in the sixth row and third column among the plurality of test patterns is highest. Thus, one target third panel region and one target fourth panel region may be determined based on the test pattern in the sixth row and second column, and one target third panel region and one target fourth panel region may be determined based on the test pattern in the sixth row and third column. That is, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may determine two target third panel regions and two target fourth panel regions.

In step 3113, the positions of the effective pixels of the first display panel are determined based on a position of the target third panel region on the first display panel, the size of the first display panel, and the size of the second display panel.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may determine the position of the position, at which the alignment accuracy is highest, in the first display panel 103 along the pixel row direction and the pixel column direction based on the position of the determined target third panel region on the first display panel. Afterwards, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may determine the size of the second display panel 104 as the effective size of the first display panel 103, and determine the number of the effective pixels in the first display panel 103 based on the effective size of the first display panel 103, and the first size of the pixel in the first display panel 103. Afterwards, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may determine the positions of the effective pixels of the first display panel 103 based on the number of the effective pixels in the first display panel 103 by taking the position, at which the alignment accuracy is highest, as an origin of coordinates.

Exemplarily, according to step 3112 above, it may be determined that in the case that the test image includes 6*6 test patterns, the brightness of the test pattern disposed in the six row and second column and the test pattern disposed in the six row and third column are highest.

Thus, it may be determined that the alignment accuracy between the first display panel 103 and the second display panel 104 at a position between the test pattern in the six row and second column and the test pattern in the six row and third column is highest. Referring to FIG. 14 , this position (origin of coordinates) is at ⅓ of the test image along the pixel row direction, and at the lowermost position of the test image.

The terms “upper left”, “left”, “upper”, “right”, and “upper right” shown in FIG. 14 are configured to indicate the deviation direction of the first display panel 103 relative to the second display panel. For example, the term “upper left” is configured to indicate that the first display panel 103 deviates to the upper left direction relative to the second display panel.

It is assumed that the size of the first display panel 103 is 63.468*63.468 mm, the size of the second display panel 104 is 62.856*62.856 mm, and the size of the first pixel in the first display panel 103 is 88.15*88.15 mm, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may determine that the effective size of the first display panel 103 may be 62.856*62.856 mm. Afterwards, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may determine that the number of the effective pixels in the first display panel 103 along the pixel row direction is 62.856±88.15 713 based on the effective size of the first display panel 103 and the size of the first pixel in the first display panel 103, and accordingly determine that the number of the effective pixels in the first display panel 103 along the pixel column direction is also 713. That is, the number of the effective pixels in the first display panel 103 may be 713*713. Moreover, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may also determine that the number of actual pixels in the first display panel 103 is 720*720.

Afterwards, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may determine that the effective pixels of the first display panel 103 include pixels in the 4^(th) column to the 716^(th) column and the 8^(th) row to the 720^(th) row in the first display panel based on the position, at which the alignment accuracy is highest, the number of the effective pixels in the first display panel 103 and the number of actual pixels in the first display panel 103.

In step 312, grayscale values of respective pixels in a third display image are determined based on a size relationship of a first size of the pixel in the first display panel and a second size of the pixel in the second display panel, and the grayscale values of the respective pixels in the second display image.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the alignment is the most accurate at the origin of the coordinates, and the misalignment is more serious at a position farther away from the origin of the coordinates. Moreover, at a position with certain distance from the origin of the coordinates, the misalignment size may be equal to the second size of one pixel in the second display panel 104 and this position may be regarded as a new position where the alignment is accurate.

Optionally, the size relationship of the first size of the pixel in the first display panel 103 and the second size of the pixel in the second display panel 104 may satisfy the total size n1*d1 of n1 pixels in the first display panel 103 is equal to the total size n2*d2 of n2 pixels in the second display panel 104, wherein d1 is the first size of each pixel in the first display panel 103 and d2 is the second size of each pixel in the second display panel 104.

Exemplarily, referring to table 1 above, the first size d1 of the pixel in the first display panel 103 is 88.15 μm and the second size d2 of the pixel in the second display panel 104 is 14.55 μm. The size relationship determined therefrom may be 17*d1≈103*d2. That is, the total size of 17 pixels in the first display panel 103 may be approximately equal to the total size of 103 pixels in the second display panel 104.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may determine, based on the grayscale values of the respective pixels in the second display image displayed by the second display panel 104, that grayscale values of pixels in the (i+m)^(th) row in the third display image satisfy:

$\begin{matrix} {{{sub}2\left( {{i + m},:} \right)} = {{a1*{{mean}\left( {{main}\left( {{{{\frac{i - {x1}}{n1}*n2} + {c*m} - \left( {m - 1} \right)}:{{\frac{i - {x1}}{n1}*n2} + {c*\left( {m + 1} \right)} - m}},:} \right)} \right)}} + {b1*{\max\left( {{main}\left( {{{{\frac{i - {x1}}{n1}*n2} + {c*m} - \left( {m - 1} \right)}:{{\frac{i - {x1}}{n1}*n2} + {c*\left( {m + 1} \right)} - m}},:} \right)} \right)}}}} & {{Formula}(28)} \end{matrix}$

and determine that grayscale values of pixels in the (j+m)^(th) column in the third display image satisfy:

$\begin{matrix} {{{sub}3\left( {:,{j + m}} \right)} = {{a1*{mean}\left( {{main}\left( {:,{\frac{j - {y1}}{n1}*{{{n2} + {c*m} - {\left( {m - 1} \right){{:{{{\frac{j - {y1}}{n1}*n2} + {c*\left( {m + 1} \right)} - m}}}}}}}}} \right)} \right)} + {b1*\max{{{{\left( {{main}\left( {:,{{\frac{j - {y1}}{n1}*n2} + {c*m} - {\left( {m - 1} \right):\frac{j - {y1}}{n1}*n2} + {c*\left( {m + 1} \right)} - m}} \right)} \right).}}}}}}} & {{formula}(29)} \end{matrix}$

In formula (28) and formula (29) above, i ranges from x1 to x2, the ratio of i−x1 to n1 is an integer, j ranges from y1 to y2, and the ratio of j−y1 to n1 is an integer; x1 is a row number of the first row of pixels in the effective pixels in the first display panel 103, and x2 is a row number of the last row of pixels in the effective pixels in the first display panel 103; y1 is a column number of the first column of pixels in the effective pixels in the first display panel 103, and y2 is a column number of the last column of pixels in the effective pixels in the first display panel 103. A1 is a weight coefficient of the average grayscale value and b is a weight coefficient of the maximum grayscale value. Mean( ) is configured to represent the average grayscale value, max( ) is configured to represent the maximum grayscale value, and c is configured to indicate that a grayscale value of one pixel in the third display image is determined by grayscale values of c pixels in the second display image.

Exemplarily, referring to table 1 above, the first size of the pixel in the first display panel 103 is 6.058 times of the second size of the pixel in the second display panel 104. Therefore, for ensuring the accuracy of the determined grayscale values of the respective pixels in the third display image, the grayscale value of one pixel in the third display image may be determined by the grayscale values of seven pixels in the second display image.

Moreover, it is assumed that the size relationship satisfies: 17*d1≈103*d2 and m is an integer greater than or equal to 0 and less than 17. The effective pixels of the first display panel 103 include pixels in the 4^(th) column to the 716^(th) column and the 8^(th) row to the 720^(th) row in the first display panel 103. That is, x1=8, x2=720, y1=4 and y2=716; i ranges from 8 to 720 and the ratio of i−8 to 17 is an integer; and j ranges from 4 to 716 and the ratio of j−4 to 17 is an integer. Thus, it may be determined from formula (28) above that the grayscale values of the pixels in the i^(th) row in the third display image may satisfy:

${{sub}2\left( {i,:} \right)} = {a1*{{{mean}\left( {{main}\left( {{{\frac{i - 8}{17}*103} + {1:\frac{i - 8}{17}*103} + 7},:} \right)} \right)} \cdot b}1*{\max\left( {{main}\left( {{{\frac{i - 8}{17}*103} + {1:\frac{i - 8}{17}*103} + {1:\frac{i - 8}{17}*103} + 7},:} \right)} \right)}}$

It may be determined from formula (28) above that the grayscale values of the pixels in the (i+1)^(th) row in the third display image may satisfy:

${{sub}2\left( {{i + 1},:} \right)} = {a1*{{{mean}\left( {{main}\left( {{{\frac{i - 8}{17}*103} + {7:\frac{i - 8}{17}*103} + 13},:} \right)} \right)} \cdot b}1*{\max\left( {{main}\left( {{{\frac{i - 8}{17}*103} + {7:\frac{i - 8}{17}*103} + 13},:} \right)} \right)}}$

It may be determined from formula (28) above that the grayscale values of the pixels in the (i+2)^(th) row in the third display image may satisfy:

${{sub}2\left( {{i + 2},:} \right)} = {a1*{{{mean}\left( {{main}\left( {{{\frac{i - 8}{17}*103} + {13:\frac{i - 8}{17}*103} + 19},:} \right)} \right)} \cdot b}1*{\max\left( {{main}\left( {{{\frac{i - 8}{17}*13} + {7:\frac{i - 8}{17}*103} + 19},:} \right)} \right)}}$

By such analogy, it may be determined from formula (28) above that the grayscale values of the pixels in the (i+15)^(th) row in the third display image may satisfy:

${{sub}2\left( {{i + 15},:} \right)} = {a1*{{{mean}\left( {{main}\left( {{{\frac{i - 8}{17}*103} + {91:\frac{i - 8}{17}*103} + 91},:} \right)} \right)} \cdot b}1*{\max\left( {{main}\left( {{{\frac{i - 8}{17}*13} + {91:\frac{i - 8}{17}*103} + 97},:} \right)} \right)}}$

It may be determined from formula (28) above that the grayscale values of the pixels in the (i+16)^(th) row in the third display image may satisfy:

${{sub}2\left( {{i + 16},:} \right)} = {a1*{{{mean}\left( {{main}\left( {{{\frac{i - 8}{17}*103} + {97:\frac{i - 8}{17}*103} + 103},:} \right)} \right)} \cdot b}1*{\max\left( {{main}\left( {{{\frac{i - 8}{17}*13} + {97:\frac{i - 8}{17}*103} + 103},:} \right)} \right)}}$

Moreover, it may be determined from formula (29) above that the grayscale values of the pixels in the j^(th) column in the third display image may satisfy:

${{sub}3\left( {:{,j}} \right)} = {a1*{{{mean}\left( {{main}\left( {{{\frac{j - 4}{17}*103} + {1:\frac{j - 4}{17}*103} + 7},:} \right)} \right)} \cdot b}1*{\max\left( {{main}\left( {{{\frac{j - 4}{17}*13} + {1:\frac{j - 4}{17}*103} + 7},:} \right)} \right)}}$

It may be determined from formula (29) above that the grayscale values of the pixels in the (j+1)^(th) column in the third display image may satisfy:

${{sub}3\left( {:{,{j + 1}}} \right)} = {a1*{{{mean}\left( {{main}\left( {:{,{{\frac{j - 4}{17}*103} + {7:\frac{j - 4}{17}*103} + 13}}} \right)} \right)} \cdot b}1*{\max\left( {{main}\left( {:{,{{\frac{j - 4}{17}*103} + {7:\frac{j - 4}{17}*103} + 13}}} \right)} \right)}}$

It may be determined from formula (29) above that the grayscale values of the pixels in the (j+2)^(th) column in the third display image may satisfy:

${{sub}3\left( {:{,{j + 2}}} \right)} = {a1*{{{mean}\left( {{main}\left( {:{,{{\frac{j - 4}{17}*103} + {13:\frac{j - 4}{17}*103} + 19}}} \right)} \right)} \cdot b}1*{\max\left( {{main}\left( {:{,{{\frac{j - 4}{17}*103} + {13:\frac{j - 4}{17}*103} + 19}}} \right)} \right)}}$

By such analogy, it may be determined from formula (29) above that the grayscale values of the pixels in the (j+15)^(th) column in the third display image may satisfy:

${{sub}3\left( {:{,{j + 15}}} \right)} = {a1*{{{mean}\left( {{main}\left( {:{,{{\frac{j - 4}{17}*103} + {91:\frac{j - 4}{17}*103} + 97}}} \right)} \right)} \cdot b}1*{\max\left( {{main}\left( {:{,{{\frac{j - 4}{17}*103} + {91:\frac{j - 4}{17}*103} + 91}}} \right)} \right)}}$

It may be determined from formula (29) above that the grayscale values of the pixels in the (j+16)^(th) column in the third display image may satisfy:

${{sub}3\left( {:{,{j + 16}}} \right)} = {a1*{{{mean}\left( {{main}\left( {:{,{{\frac{j - 4}{17}*103} + {97:\frac{j - 4}{17}*103} + 103}}} \right)} \right)} \cdot b}1*{\max\left( {{main}\left( {:{,{{\frac{j - 4}{17}*103} + {97:\frac{j - 4}{17}*103} + 103}}} \right)} \right)}}$

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the resolution of the third display image determined according to the above formula is 713*713. That is, the number of the pixels of the third display image is 713*713 and is the same as the number of the pixels of the effective display region of the first display panel 103

In step 313, a fourth display image is acquired by performing second edge supplementing processing on the third display image based on the positions of the effective pixels of the first display panel.

As the resolution of the third display image acquired according to step 312 above is less than the first resolution of the first display panel 103, it needs to process the third display image, such that the resolution of the processed image (fourth display image) may be equal to the first resolution, which facilitates the display of the first display panel 103.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may acquire the fourth display image by performing second edge pixel supplementing processing on the third display image. The resolution of the fourth display image may be equal to the first resolution of the first display panel 103. The second edge pixel supplementing processing may be pixel filling processing for a region with an edge distal from the center in the third display image.

Optionally, the pixels of the third display image may be disposed in an initial region of the fourth display image, and the image disposed in the initial region in the fourth display image may be configured to be displayed in the effective display region of the first display panel 103.

Referring to FIG. 15 , step 313 may include the following steps.

In step 3131, a plurality of fifth supplementing pixels are added to a side, distal from the center, of at least one row edge in the third display image, based on the positions of the effective pixels of the first display panel.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may determine which edge of the effective display region of the first display panel 103 that the fifth supplementary pixel needing to be added is disposed, based on the positions of the effective pixels of the first display panel 103.

If a lower edge of the effective display region of the first display panel 103 is overlapped with a lower edge of an actual display region of the first display panel 103, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may add the fifth supplementing pixels to a side, distal from the center, of the upper edge in the third display image. If an upper edge of the effective display region of the first display panel 103 is overlapped with an upper edge of an actual display region of the first display panel 103, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may add the fifth supplementing pixels to a side, distal from the center, of the lower edge in the third display image. If the upper edge of the effective display region of the first display panel 103 is not overlapped with the upper edge of the actual display region of the first display panel 103, and the lower edge of the effective display region of the first display panel 103 is not overlapped with the lower edge of the actual display region of the first display panel 103, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may add the fifth supplementing pixels to the side, distal from the center, of the lower edge in the third display image, and the side, distal from the center, of the lower edge in the third display image.

A grayscale value of each of the fifth supplementing pixels is equal to a grayscale value of a seventh pixel, which is closest to the fifth supplementing pixel and disposed in the same column as the fifth supplementing pixel in the third display image.

Exemplarily, it is determined according to step 3113 above that the effective pixels of the first display panel 103 include pixels in the 4^(th) column to the 716^(th) column and the 8^(th) row to the 720^(th) row in the first display panel 103. That is, the lower edge of the effective display region of the first display panel 103 may be overlapped with the lower edge of the actual display region of the first display panel 103. Thus, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may add the plurality of fifth supplementing pixels to the side, distal from the center, of the upper edge in the third display image.

In step 3132, a plurality of sixth supplementing pixels are added to a side, distal from the center, of at least one column edge in the third display image, based on the positions of the effective pixels of the first display panel.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may determine the positions of the sixth supplementing pixels needing to be added in the effective display region of the first display panel 103, based on the positions of the effective pixels of the first display panel 103.

If a left edge of the effective display region of the first display panel 103 is overlapped with a left edge of the actual display region of the first display panel 103, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may add the sixth supplementing pixels to a side, distal from the center, of a right edge in the third display image. If a right edge of the effective display region of the first display panel 103 is overlapped with a right edge of an actual display region of the first display panel 103, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may add the sixth supplementing pixels to a side, distal from the center, of a left edge in the third display image. If the left edge of the effective display region of the first display panel 103 is not overlapped with the left edge of the actual display region of the first display panel 103, and the right edge of the effective display region of the first display panel 103 is not overlapped with the right edge of the actual display region of the first display panel 103, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may add the sixth supplementing pixels to the side, distal from the center, of a left edge in the third display image and the side, distal from the center, of the right edge in the third display image.

A grayscale value of each of the sixth supplementing pixels is equal to a grayscale value of an eighth pixel, which is closest to the sixth supplementing pixel and disposed in the same row as the sixth supplementing pixel in the third display image.

Exemplarily, it is determined according to step 3113 above that the effective pixels of the first display panel 103 include pixels in the 4^(th) column to the 716^(th) column and the 8^(th) row to the 720^(th) row in the first display panel 103. That is, the left edge of the effective display region of the first display panel 103 is not overlapped with the left edge of the actual display region of the first display panel 103, and the right edge of the effective display region of the first display panel 103 is not overlapped with the right edge of the actual display region of the first display panel 103. Thus, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may add the plurality of sixth supplementing pixels to the side, distal from the center, of the left edge in the third display image and the side, distal from the center, of the right edge in the third display image.

In step 314, the fourth display image is displayed in the first display panel.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the apparatus for displaying the image 101 may drive the first display panel 103 to display the fourth display image determined in step 313 above.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, FIG. 13 shows the display effect of the display device when the first display image is displayed by the first display panel. FIG. 16 shows the display effect of the display device when the fourth display image is displayed by the first display panel. Referring to FIG. 13 and FIG. 16 , it can be seen that when the fourth display image is displayed by the first display panel, the display effect of the display device is better and misalignment does not occur.

It should be noted that the order of steps of the method for displaying the image according to the embodiment of the present disclosure may be adjusted properly and the steps may also be correspondingly increased or decreased according to the situation. For example, step 305 and step 306 may be executed before step 303, step 308 to step 310 may be executed at the same time, and step 311 to step 314 may be deleted according to the actual situation. Change methods that would be readily conceived by any person skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in the present disclosure should be within the scope of protection of the present disclosure and thus will not be described herein.

In summary, in the method for displaying the image according to the embodiment of the present disclosure, the brightness of the light emitted by the plurality of backlight sources can be adjusted based on the brightness of the plurality of first image regions of the acquired first target image, which makes the light portion of the image displayed by the display device lighter and the dark portion thereof darker. Thus, the image has a relatively higher contrast, and the display device has the better display effect. Moreover, as the brightness of the light emitted by the backlight source may be adjusted flexibly through the method according to the present disclosure, the power consumption of the display device can be effectively reduced. In addition, through the method according to the present disclosure, on the premise of adjusting the brightness of the backlight source, the image displayed by the first display panel and the image displayed by the second display panel can be controlled respectively, and thus the display effect of the display device can be further ensured.
